This self-service grill, part of the Cordúa empire, serves casual Latin cuisine. You're guaranteed to get in and out fast unless, of course, you can't stay away from the plantain chips and salsas that are free for the taking. Enjoy a delicious ceviche, an amazing burger or the dish that made Cordúa famous, the churrasco steak, a beef tenderloin served with that famous chimichurri sauce. Finish with one of the best tres leches cakes in town and a cafecito.
